Asbestos has dangerous health consequences for employees when asbestos fibres that are generated from ongoing work (e.g. the demolition or renovation of older buildings) becomes airborne and inhaled by employees.

Inhaling asbestos over time can cause serious lung diseases such as asbestosis and lung cancer. 

It is therefore paramount that potential candidates are screened and current employees have ongoing asbestos medicals to monitor their lung function, health and implement mechanisms to prevent employees from further asbestos exposure. 

Our asbestos medical consists of a:

• Demographic and occupational history
• Health and lifestyle questionnaire
• Medical assessment (emphasis on the respiratory system)
• Spirometry test (Lung function assessment)
• Chest X-ray
